How to Split Time Logs

1. Open the Time Logs page

  • In Workroom, go to Time Logs.

  • You’ll see a list of all logged time entries.

  • Find the time log you want to split.

 

2. Choose the time log to split

  • Locate the specific time log you want to divide.

  • Any time log can be split, including short or long entries.

  • In the example, a 10-hour time log is selected.

 

3. Start the split action

  • Click the three-dot menu on the time log.

  • Select Split Time Log.

  • Workroom will show how many hours are available to split from the source project.

 

4. Decide how you want to allocate the time

  • You can split evenly across multiple projects by adding the projects first and enabling even split.

  • If you leave Split Evenly unchecked, you can manually assign specific hour amounts to each project.

  • You can keep some time on the source project and move the rest elsewhere.

 

5. Adjust allocations as needed

  • Enter the number of hours you want to assign to each project.

  • You can also add more than the original amount if needed.

  • If you exceed the original total, Workroom will show the overage at the bottom (for example, 11 hours allocated of 10 hours).

  • This lets you see exactly how the split is being distributed before applying it.

 

6. Apply the split

  • Once the allocations look correct, click Apply Split.

  • Workroom will create new split time logs based on the original entry.

  • The original time log remains represented in the split results.

 

7. Review the resulting time logs

  • The split creates multiple new logs from the original time entry.

  • In the example, the 10-hour log becomes several smaller logs, plus the original source project entry.

  • The split logs stay on the same day as the original time log.

  • Workroom carries over the original time log’s information automatically.

 

8. Get help if needed

  • If you have questions, contact the Workroom team.

  • They can help clarify how splitting time logs works.
